The car ran I/Stock the following year, competiting in the NHRA Winternationals at Pomona, '69 Springnationals at Dallas and '69 Indy Nationals. Also raced at Sioux City, Denver, Miniapolis, Cornhusker, Raceland/Charlie's Speedway, Kansas, Thunder Valley etc... Any help would be great! Thanks

I talked to a guy at Thunder Valley this weekend
I asked if he had ever seen this car
He says he has photos of it at Thunder Valley and Soo City
i am trying to get them to scan them

I will share if/when it happens...

I will ask my dad if he has any video of it. He has a little Super-8 footage from Omaha and Cornhusker Dragways.

I just received a DVD of some Drag Racing footage from Kearney Nebraska 1969 & 1970 & it has lots of footage of Good In-tension on it. 3 of my friends all owned Good In-Tension over the past few years. However my last friend to own it took it to Kansas last fall & sold it on auction. The guy who bought it didn't want the fuel injection parts.

Keep me posted if you find any footage of the In-Bomber. I had a chance to buy Good In-Tension before ti went to auction and wish I did. It went cheap for what the car was. Does Cody still have the fuelie setup?? We're running Good In-Tension's original headers on our car now. The next best thing to our original fuelie setup, which is MIA, would be that one, but he wouldn't sell it seperate from the car at the time.

Does your DVD by chance also include alot of early Scribner video?
A friend of mine made some DVDs just recently from a disc from a guy at M.U.D. It had several minutes of racing and some interviews at Scribner back in the beginning with Grasso, Ralph Howard, etc.
